I feel kind of weird about posting this on a message board, but I don't have any real female friends who could possibly give advice, so I figured this couldn't hurt.
Lately, my period has been majorly whacked. And this is odd for me. Ever since I began menstruated at the age of 12 and a half, everything has always been regular. Average of six days, every month, etc. More details that you'd like to know, I am sure.
Last month, my period started a week early and lasted for two weeks. I was freaked out, but it eventually went away, and so I didn't seek a doctor's help. My mother and sister told me that doctor's wouldn't really care or worry unless it had been going on for a month or so. My period stopped about a week and a half ago. And this morning, it is back again. I have cramps worse than I've had in about a year, I've been dizzy, and just plain miserable. I should be ovulating at this time, not bleeding.
Has anyone else had this happen? Should I worry? I am going to try to make a doctor's appointment as soon as possible, but I don't know if they can even help.
I know that some women have period problems due to their birth control, getting used to it. And I don't think that is what is causing this weird flux, as I have been on the patch for eleven months now, and have never had any sort of side affects. I have always changed my patch on time. So, I don't know what it could be caused from.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, because my hypochondriac brain is freaking me out with possibilities of what it could be.
